Chris Cornell - Dead Wishes lyrics

Your rating:

Staring in the mirror with two borrowed eyes

Looking for the part of me that's still alive

Waiting for my chest to fall... and rise

Standing on the corner with my shirt tucked in

Summer turns to autumn winter turns to spring

And it all flies by... like a speeding train



Dead wishes on a broken chain

White roses in a dead man's dream

Down and out with everything to lose

If these long dead wishes

Ever do come true



Waiting for the night to come and chase away

All the flies hovering around my head

With my memory for a pillow

And all my regrets for a bed



Standing on the corner now I'm passed surprise

Yelling out a warning to some passer by

I stand just as God made me

And I lie down in disguise



Dead wishes on a burning lake

White roses from my soul to keep

Down and out with everything to win

If my long since sunken ship

Ever does come in



(Round and round we all fall down

And that's how ancient mountains crumble)



Time keeps moving slower

Like falling from the sun

Come and knock me over

I keep getting up

Throw a line down to me

Keep hanging on



Standing on the corner don't apologize

You don't have to bow your head or raise your eyes

Or pretend that you don't see me



Dead wishes on a broken chain

White roses in a dead man's dream

Down and out with everything to lose

If these long dead wishes

If these long dead wishes

Ever do come true



Round and round we all fall down

And that's how ancient mountains crumble

Round and round we all fall down

And that's how ancient mountains crumble

That's how ancient mountains crumble

That's how ancient mountains crumble
